Abstract

The technology disclosed herein enables an operating system kernel to schedule and perform load balancing of latency-sensitive tasks on processors that are otherwise excluded from a scope of load balancing performed by the kernel scheduler. An example method may include identifying, in an operating system of a computing device, one or more first tasks and one or more second tasks, where the second tasks are characterized by one or more latency constraints, identifying a first set of processors that are available for load balancing by a kernel scheduler of the operating system, scheduling execution of the first tasks on the first set of processors, identifying a second set of processors that are excluded from a scope of load balancing performed by the kernel scheduler, and scheduling execution of the second tasks on the second set of processors.
